My wife just had a our little girl and is really depressed about her post pregnancy stomach. Our little girl is only 3 wks old, so I told her it would take some time. How long will she be "bloated" and what should she do to minimize her pouch?

It will take some time for everything to adjust. The body won't recover totally for months to come. A good exercise for the'pouch' is to lay on her back, extend out her legs vertically and move her legs like she is riding a bike. Good luck.

this is normal.
Right now she should relax and take it easy!
in a few weeks try exercising with the baby!
There are video tapes that incorporate baby and mommy excercises, It is actually an awesome concept, & promotes mommy and baby time! and mommy feels good about herself!
you could check on line for this type of video, google it.
yes, it takes some time, breastfeeding helps too by the way...to make the uterus go back to size faster.

Tell her that her little belly will go down in awhile. It takes a little time for the tissues and skin to go back to normal providing she didn't gain a ton of weight. If she did, it will take a little longer including some re-arranging of her caloric intake to be decide by her doc in the event of breast feeding. Tell her not to be depressed about it. It is totally normal for a few months. The best thing that YOU can do is compliment her and tell her how much you love her and that you care so very much about her. Her esteem is very important, particularly at this postpartum period. And, congrats to both of you on your new baby.

I even have been in Angels Stadium, Dodger Stadium, Yankee Stadium, Petco Park and regardless of the call is of that sauna in Miami in purple Sox kit. all human beings treats you with appreciate/ignores you, different than the yank followers. there is only too lots historic previous there. It makes it relaxing. As on your journey, i ought to in no way comprehend why a Yankee fan might take place at Fenway for a purple Sox--Tigers interest in Yankee kit. placed on Tiger kit for Heaven's sake. of course you would be the main loathed individual in the park. definitely donning a Yankee hat in the city of Boston isn't the brightest of strikes as a usual remember.

pilates for abs. eat right and just wait, time will reduce the pouch a little but exercise and eating habits will help with toning and weight loss.
